I'm using a 6300+ running UNIX.  Is there a way of controlling the colors
used on the CRT from a program in 'C' language.  I've looked
through the UNIX reference manual, sections 2-5 and found nothing
except for curses, which apparently does not support color CRTs.

If the answer is in the doc., it's not obvious to me.
